For some wonderful and happy reason, tromey, mjw, Anthony and Jeff have all suddenly become active on GCJ again, all at the same time, after being dormant for several weeks! For some weird reason, they had also all gone dormant at about the same time. This weekend I finally found out that the intermittent and increasingly irritating crashes on my home PC while building GCC on Linux was actually due to a defective RAM module - after removing the offending module, everything was back to normal, even after extended stress testing.
